Easily Amused


One of my favorite things to do is drop a punch or joke on someone right as they taking a drink.  Call it sophomoric if ya want, but it is damn funny watching someone snort beer out of their nose.  In the world of humor and joke telling, it is all about the timing.  Getting the timing right can be the difference between a belly laugh and a big boo.

Everything in life revolves around timing.  Getting that dream job, finding the right person for a great relationship, getting delayed only to drive by and see a wreck at the place you would have been a few minutes earlier.  I used to be one of those hard-lined plan everything down to the minute kinda guy, but then I realized all that planning means nothing when compared to living the what is happening at the moment approach.  Short of planning travel a little ways out in order to get the better pricing, I try to stay away from setting too much of a plan.  Sure, I have structure in my life, when it comes to work or making appointments and obligations but other than that, I leave to the whatever happens is gonna happen fairy.  After all, it is all about the timing.
